Hunting for cytochrome p450 genes in Maize

Hello, Just wondering if anyone on nodalpoint is in a position to help with gene hunting for cytochrome p450 genes in Maize (just for fun)?

Some more details at whether maize carries the protective cytochrome p450 or the “defective” version of the gene and Researchers Identify Genetic “Fix” for Problem in Some Sweet Corn Hybrids.

This is for a long lost friend of mine Jeremy Cherfas who is a biologist, but computer literate. He writes good books about the human genome (for example) and is just curious to do some experimental and exploratory bioinformatics, just for kicks but with a special interest in Agricultural Biodiversity.

Communicating Biology to Computer Scientists

The Human GenomeMany computer scientists and software engineers are not familiar with basic biology or bioinformatics. Many biologists and bioinformaticians are not familiar with basic computer science or software engineering. This article points to some resources that can help with the former, and asks, what can be done about the latter?
